Jerald Swope,
Assistant Professor of Journalism and Mass Communication,
received an expense defrayment grant for photographic printing and
framing. Photographs from the framed collection were exhibited in
various venues. For example, thirteen of the photographs from
Swope’s “Living in Two Worlds” project about contemporary Lakota
life in Pine Ridge South Dakota were included in an exhibit at
McCarthy Art Center Gallery. Professor Swope introduced the
photographs at a kick-off event and later hosted two Saint Michael's
College anthropology classes for an in-depth discussion. Publicity
generated from this event lead to an invitation to exhibit separate
but related photographs in The Traveling Artist exhibit at the Helen
Day Arts Center in Stowe in the summer of 2007. Most recently, a
selection of the framed images was displayed at the Center for
Cultural Pluralism at the University of Vermont in December 2007 and
January 2008. |
